In the summer of 2023, I will be building a collection of articles and activities for our little visitors to teach their dolls about American pioneers. This was the time when immigrants from all over the world settled in an uncharted area across the North American continent. They came with the hope of starting a new life and having land they could farm and live on with new generations for many years to come. The time for peace was not permanent. Pioneers suffered calamity, struggle, poverty and survival.
